Care and Maintenance
• Keep the recorder dry. If it gets wet, wipe it dry

Vehicle Battery Power
PAUSE
You can power the recorder from your vehicle’s cigarette-
lighter socket using a 6V, 300mA DC adapter and a size B
Adapta-plug™ adapter (neither included; available at your
local RadioShack store). Unplug the adapter from the outlet
before unplugging it from the recorder.
Press once to temporarily stop playback/recording. Press
again to resume.
• Use and store the recorder only in normal temperature
environments.
Carrying Handle
Slide out the handle out to carry the recorder.
• Keep the recorder away from dust and dirt, and handle
the recorder gently and carefully.
Note: The power source must supply 6V DC and deliver at
least 300mA. Its center tip must be set to positive and its
plug must fit the DC 6V jack. Using an adapter that does
not meet these specifications could damage the recorder or
adapter.
• Modifying or tampering with the recorder’s internal
components can cause a malfunction and might
invalidate its warranty. If your recorder is not performing
as it should, take it to your local RadioShack store for
assistance.

Playing a Cassette
Tape Tips
Load the cassette with the side to play facing out, and press
PLAY. The tape will automatically stop when it reaches the
end, or you can press STOP/EJECT.
Recommended Tapes
AUX – Connect an audio
source using a patch cord
(not included) with a 1/8 -inch
plug.
Tape quality greatly affects the quality of the recording. We
recommend extended range or low noise Type 1 regular
length (60- or 90-minute) normal-bias cassette tapes. We
do not recommend long-play cassette tapes such as C-120s
because they are thin and can easily tangle.
If the playback sounds distorted, clean the recorder with a
cassette deck cleaning kit (not included).
EAR – Insert earphones
(not supplied) for private
listening. The speaker mutes.
